Ruby I have seen the O'Brien entry for Theophilus and it does say he arrived in 1674 but there seems to be no real verification of that. That date may, instead, coincide with Theo's joint land deal with Daniel Swillivant. I will have more info to follow. There is a master passenger list, PASSENGER AND IMMIGRATION LISTS INDEX, First Edition by Gales Research Company, Editors P. William Filby and Mary K. Meyer. There are about 12 volumes in the Rochester library, apparently including updated information over a period of 10 years or so after the original publication. I have been through the first two volumes and have found the following entries: ARRIVAL ARRIVAL NAME AGE PLACE YEAR SOURCE PAGE Wale, Theophilus NA Virginia 1674 6264 215* Wale, John NA Virginia 1655 2772 340 Whalley, Oliver NA Virginia 1698 9151 182 Whaley, George NA Virginia 1663-1679 943 128 Whaley, James NA Virginia 1698 6264 216 Whaley, Richard NA Virginia 1684 2524 87 Whalley,Ann 23 America 1706 9151 218 Whalley, Thomas 15 America 1705 9151 214 Wale, Edward NA Barbados 1654-1663 943 23 Wale, F francis NA Barbados 1654-1663 943 37 Wale, John NA Barbados 1679 3283 506 (with servants) Wale, Joseph 30 Maryland 1775 2128 128 Wale, Mary NA America 1754 9151 352 Whaley, Richard NA Virginia 1684 * cannot find this actual record in the O'Brien book referenced. 6264 "IRISH SETTLERS IN AMERICA" Michael O'Brien (makes me suspicious that Theo may have come from Ireland) 2772 "EARLY VIRGINIA IMMIGRANTS 1623-1666 by George Cabell Greer 9151 Michael Tepper 2524 " A LIST OF EMIGRANTS FROM ENGLAND TO AMERICA" Michael Ghirelli Please forgive me but I am putting this information together in a hurry. This note is an overview of the extent of information available through the index. If there are any individuals or dates of interest, please contact me and I will verify the information. PS-Ruby I sent a separate note to Fayette when I noticed his entry. I asked for more information so I could help ID his relations. I haven't heard back from him yet. Again, apologies for the quick and perhaps mostly accurate reponse. The family and I are off to Toronto for a long weekend. Please write me if you have questions about any of this information.
